Skin Cross-Section The skin consists of two distinct layers: the epidermis and the dermis. Each layer is made of distinct tissues and performs distinct functions to support the body. A third layer of tissue under the skin, known as the hypodermis or subcutaneous layer, is not truly part of the skin itself but connects the skin loosely to the underlying muscles and bones that make up the deeper tissues of the body.

- Sheets of dense connective tissue cover muscles, separate neighbouring muscles and also serve to give attachment to muscle fibres. The largest single mass of dense connective tissue is seen as the dermis (specifically, the reticular dermis) of the skin. In some animals the dermis is thick enough to be processed as leather. In larger sheets, collagen fibres run in all directions to give strength against multidirectional forces.

- The nerves that supply the muscles and the skin in the upper extremity leave the spinal cord in a complicated network of nerve fibers, roots and bundles—this is called the brachial plexus. These nerves travel down the side of the front of the neck and divide, then rejoin to form the median, radial and ulnar nerves.

Which voluntary muscle is attached to a bone? Voluntary muscles, also called skeletal muscles, are attached to bones by tendons.igaments, tendons, muscles, fascia, cartilage and skin all play a part in securing bones to bones and muscles to bones. However, most bones are connected to other bones by li … gaments, and muscles are connected to bones by tendons. Ligament attaches bones to bones. Tendon attaches muscle to bones.

- The sun's rays can break down these proteins and, eventually, the skin begins to wrinkle and sag. The subcutaneous layer, or subcutis, is a layer of fatty tissue that provides nourishment to the dermis and upper layers of skin. It also conserves body heat and cushions internal organs against trauma.Blood vessels, nerves, sweat glands and deeper hair follicles extend from the dermis into the fat (hypodermis).he sun's rays can break down these proteins and, eventually, the skin begins to wrinkle and sag.

- The connective tissue itself is called Fascia. It not only surrounds muscles and tendons but also organs, nerves and bones--it basically ties the human body together. There … are three types of fascia which surround muscles. They are named for how 'deep' they are and how much of a muscle they surround.

Structure of Muscle  (and associated connective tissues) consists of areolar connective tissue and adipose tissue, and may also be referred to as the  subcutaneous layer  of the skin. is more relevant to the study of muscle structures because it is deep fascia that holds the muscles together. It consists of dense fibrous connective tissue. Skeletal Muscle. (=Voluntary Muscle). The type of muscle that causes movement of the skeletal system (especially limbs), and of skin in the cases of the muscles of facial expression in the head and neck area has many names.

- You may not think of it as a muscular body part, but your face has plenty of muscles. You can check them out next time you look in the mirror. Facial muscles don't all attach directly to bone like they do in the rest of the body. Instead, many of them attach under the skin. This allows you to contract your facial muscles just a tiny bit and make dozens of different kinds of faces.

Human Physiology/Print Version The epidermis, the outermost layer of skin, provides a waterproof barrier and creates our skin tone. The dermis, beneath the epidermis, contains tough connective tissue, hair follicles, and sweat glands. The deeper subcutaneous tissue (hypodermis) is made of fat and connective tissue.

Structure of the Skin Because the skin has several accessory organs, it is also possible to speak of the integumentary system. The skin (Fig. 5.1) has two regions: the epidermis and the dermis. The hypodermis, a subcutaneous tissue, is found between the skin and any underlying structures, such as muscle. Usually, the hypodermis is only loosely attached to underlying muscle tissue, but where no muscles are present, the hypodermis attaches directly to bone.

- Structure [edit]. The facial muscles are subcutaneous (just under the skin) muscles that control facial expression. They generally originate from the surface of the skull bone (rarely the fascia), and insert on the skin of the face. When they contract, the skin moves.amage to the facial nerve results in facial paralysis of the muscles of facial expression on the involved side. Paralysis is the loss of voluntary muscle action; the facial nerve has become damaged permanently or temporarily.

Healthy Muscles Matter Skeletal muscles are connected to your bones by tough cords of tissue called tendons (TEN-duhns). As the muscle contracts, it pulls on the tendon, which moves the bone. Bones are connected to other bones by ligaments (LIG-uh-muhnts), which are like tendons and help hold your skeleton together.keletal muscles are connected to your bones by tough cords of tissue called tendons (TEN-duhns).

Facial muscles The facial muscles are a group of striated skeletal muscles innervated by the facial nerve (cranial nerve VII) that, among other things, control facial expression. These muscles are also called mimetic muscles.he facial muscles are subcutaneous (just under the skin) muscles that control facial expression. They generally originate from the surface of the skull bone (rarely the fascia), and insert on the skin of the face. When they contract, the skin moves.

Skin Cross-Section Deep to the dermis is the subcutaneous layer, also known as the hypodermis. The subcutaneous layer contains mostly loose connective tissues such as adipose and areolar connective tissue. These tissues store energy as triglycerides; provide insulation to the underlying tissues; and loosely connect the skin to the body.

- The dermis, a connective tissue made up of collagen and networks of elastic fibers which give skin its resiliency, is the layer in which tattoo ink is deposited. The dermis (papillary layer) immediately below the epidermis is made of loose connective tissue and contains small blood vessels and nerve endings.

- Back to top. Skin: dermal layers. The dermis, called true skin,  is the layer beneath the epidermis. Its major parts are collagen (a protein that adds strength), reticular fibers (thin protein fibers that add support), and elastic fibers (a protein that adds flexibility).ts two main layers are the epidermis (outer layer) and dermis (inner layer). The epidermis has several strata (layers) that contain four cell types. Keratinocytes produce keratin, a protein that gives skin its strength and flexibility and waterproofs the skin surface.

- The dermis is the inner layer of the skin, and includes: hair follicles, nerves, sweat glands, small blood vessels and sebaceous glands. It is made up of connective tissue and consists of two layers, the stratum papillare (upper layer) and the stratum reticulare.he dermis acts as a supporting structure for the epidermis and contains proteins such as collagen and elastin. These provide the skin with strength, the ability to stretch and the ability to return to its original shape.

What do collagen and elastin do? Collagen, a protein, supports and your body's tissues and, literally, keeps your body from falling apart. Collagen is the primary component of the body's connective tissue. About 80% of the dermis -- the part of your skin that's under the epidermis (outer layer) -- is collagen.Collagen gives your skin strength.ollagen and elastin are fibers that make up the supporting structure of the skin. Collagen gives skin its firmness while elastin keeps skin tight. Both of these fibers are plentiful in young skin and start to break down with natural aging and as a result of sun exposure.

- Strands of tough connective tissue connect the skeletal muscles to bones. These strands of tissue are called tendon s. When a muscle that connects two bones gets shorter, the bones are pulled closer to each other. For example, tendons attach the biceps muscle to a bone in your shoulder and to a bone in your forearm.When the biceps muscle shortens, your forearm bends toward your shoulder. The skeletal muscles often work in pairs to produce smooth, controlled motions by pulling, or contracting.hen one muscle in the pair bends part of the body, the other muscle extends or straightens part of the body. Bones of the Chicken The upper wing consists of a humerus, which is at one end, and the ulna and the radius at the lower wing. These bones connect at the elbow joint.
